Abaco - May 3 to 7, 2011


We arrived into the Sea of Abaco on Tuesday afternoon, after a rolly and not so comfortable cruise from Spanish Wells.  We left Nassau on Monday morning and cruised to Spanish Wells at the Northern tip of Eleuthera.  We have been there before, on one of Bandit’s moorings, almost 10 weeks ago, and that is where we met Dirk and Nancy and Dan and Ruth.  We went into town for dinner, and bought some fish.  We reminisced about the last time we were here, which was at the beginning of our adventure.  Now, we are slowly making our way back home.

We anchored in the Sea of Abaco just south of Man-O-War Cay.  The Sea of Abaco is a body of water that is surrounded by a number of Cays to the north, and the Great Abaco Island to the south.  It is almost like a lake, and is quite calm.  We plan on staying here for a week or so, and visiting the surrounding cays and villages with the dinghy.  We also are planning to do some snorkeling and fishing!!  We will then move South to visit Little Harbor in the main island, before starting our trek back to Florida.

Tomorrow we are going to Guana Cay, to Nippers Bar, where they have a famous pig roast every Sunday.  We will begin the day with a call to Mom, and wish here a very happy Mothers Day!!

We don’t have any photos, but will work on the over the next few days.
